The family lived in a house on South Clay in Ferguson, St. Louis County, Missouri that they had built in 1904 or 1905. The home was considered to be historically important and was included in a walking tour of Ferguson more than 100 years later. According to stories told about the house, the columns of the portico came from the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair.
